Hello,

I am closing this submission (and also related 'bash-*' projects) due to inactivity.

You will still be able to register the project again once
you have the time to deal with the registration issues.

regards,

Hello,

Are you still interested in the submission of project 'bash-core', and the related 'bash-*' projects ?

If within two weeks there is no reply, this submission request will be closed. You will still be able to register the project again once you have the time to deal with the registration issues.


regards,

Hello,

Thank you for submitting a new project to host on GNU Savannah.

To host a project on GNU Savannah, it must comply with the hosting requirements:
http://savannah.gnu.org/register/requirements.php
http://savannah.gnu.org/maintenance/HowToGetYourProjectApprovedQuickly/

One such requirement is that the license must be compatible with current and future versions of the GPL.
The "Artistic License 2.0" is GPL-Compatbile and can be used ( see http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#ArtisticLicense2 ), however adding additional restrictions makes it incompatible with GPL, and we can not host such projects (regardless of how good-intentioned those restrictions are).

Please update the license information in your projects to be GPL-compabitle.
please upload a new archive (with the source-code files of this project) to the savannah website (the "Attach Files" at the bottom of this page: http://savannah.gnu.org/task/?13965 ) and the project registration could proceed.

For any further discussion, please reply by adding a comment on this web-page ( http://savannah.gnu.org/task/?13965 ) - this will allow us to better track the progress of this request.

regards,
 - assaf

P.S.
This requirement is relevant to all the other similar projects that you have recently submitted - please amend them all.

Hi - thanks for the submission.  I appreciate the concept of what you're doing, but everything on savannah must be gpl-compatible.

1) the artistic license is only gpl-compatible due to the relicensing clause.  therefore you might as well use the gpl in the first place.

2) more importantly, any additional restrictions, however desirable or well-intentioned, make a license incompatible.  if you think your amendments should be ok in this regard, please write -email is unavailable- -- it's not up to us at savannah to make those decisions.


not crucial, but while i'm here, one more point: the name bash-"core" for a group of extensions to bash does not make sense to me.  anyway, if the license stuff can be figured out, i'm sure the name can be too.

thanksand happy hacking,
karl

Registration Administration


While this item will be useful to track the registration process, approving or discarding the registration must be done using the specific Group Administration page, accessible only to site administrators, effectively logged as site administrators (superuser):



Registration Details


  • Name: bash-core
  • System Name:  bashcore
  • Type: non-GNU software and documentation
  • License: Other (Artistic-License-2.0 + Forced-Fairplay-Constraints


- ArtisticLicense-2.0 - for base license
- licenses-amendments.txt - Forced-Fairplay-Constraints
)




Description:

The project bash-core serves as the base for a group of projects aimed to provide specialized extension features for the ’bash’.

The complete set introduces in particular the paradigms of bash-library and bash-scriptlet into the script programming. It extends the complete set of shell configuration and customization by management features. Special support for the GNU-Autotools and packaging is added.


Other Software Required:

bash, additional GNU-packages


Other Comments:

Forced-Fairplay-Constraints: The complete text is contained in the software package. They basically reject the base-license completely in case of unfair-competition and/or fraud.

This is due to my personal racking financial experience caused by the vast fraud and cheeting after I introduced the Multi-Vendor Cloud management platform UnifiedSessionsManager based on the GPL-3 license - https://sourceforge.net/projects/ctys/.

So the license is and remains in case of fairplay open source, else is completely withdrawn for all the persons being part and/or related to the issue.

Thus the savannah.gnu.org is still one of the right places to live for it.

The contents are following soon.
